Hi! FabiCrafter48 here (formerly known as MrKirby48). I wasn't active for many months but If don't worry if don't know who I am.

OK, Probably all of you have seen the knockoff Talk n Action Thomas set made by the company LCF (same company that made other knockoff TOMY/Trackmaster sets), which has little to no information about it. Nobody knows if this toy plays generic train sounds, music or actual Thomas voicelines!

But recently we found a even rarer set!

This crazy knockoff under the name "Thomas Extended Family" (Note: this may be a inaccurate translation) 家庭has a very accurate Tomica World style box and a more accurate Annie coach. Thomas seems wasn't changed at all compared to the LCF Thomas. Source: https://club.1688.com/threadview/47478938.html

And now the question is, This toy has a unique soundchip of Thomas voicelines in chinese!? God knows...

I updated the page with new info, found a higher resolution imageof the box, Talk n Action Magic Rail set factory number is "NO.2277-6" (This could be helpful) and I think this a new image! found at http://www.1688.com/cluster/36806279701.html which sadly it only redirects to a 404 page.

I think I'm going crazy with this theory
"ABC" is a Youtube channel created on February 11th 2011, his content is mainly showcase of toys (including Thomas toys) taken from other sites (TaoBao, Youku, etc)

In this video showcase the LCF Thomas Big Loader set

And the landscape is quite familiar to this

That means we are a step close to find a video of this rare knockoff Talk n Action set? Maybe rarer than some official toys? Hahaha.

What do you think?

Luckily for us the TaoBao shop seen in the video is still available! https://shop57129350.taobao.com/
Sadly an account is required to see the listing, in the main page I was able to see knock-off TOMY track, knock-off Plarail bullet trains and "SouthWard" rolling stock. If someone has a TaoBao account and tell me if there's LCF Thomas sets (including Talk n Action Magic Rail set) listed on the shop I' will be very grateful Smile

I’ll try, but is TaoBao safe?
